My name is Levi, and I work in anime.

"What arrangements did His Majesty Morgan make?"

"His Majesty is preparing to cast a spell to banish this fellow, but it will take some time."

“I see.” The boy looked at the garrison behind him and said, “Let them retreat. They are no match for the calamity. Staying here will only increase casualties.”

“Alright.” Baggis nodded, then gave the order for the troops to retreat.

Most of the troops visibly breathed a sigh of relief. As members of the Fang Clan, they were not afraid of battle, but their morale was clearly shaken after realizing they could not inflict any damage.

The remaining small group of warmongers or Bagge's loyal guards tried to stay and help, but military orders were absolute, and after being reprimanded, they withdrew.

In the end, only three people remained on the front line to stop the calamity: Levi, the fairy knight Gawain, and Artoria.

"Can she...do she do it?" Bagst looked at the little guy whose hair barely reached his chest and had some doubts about him.

"Although I'm not mature enough yet, I will try my best!"

Artoria felt both excited and terrified that her debut battle would involve facing such a powerful being.

"Prepare now...!"

[The allure of hope]: The strength and stamina of the three present received a significant boost, and their magic began to stir.

"After all, it's a battle...!"

With the blessing of the lake, Li Wei clearly felt that his magic release had become stronger and his magic recovery speed had increased.

"Let's begin hand-to-hand combat!"

The Sword of Choice suddenly shone with a dazzling light, seemingly granting extra damage against calamity. At the same time, Li Wei felt as if he had donned an invisible layer of armor.

The three people who remained alone at the front line clearly attracted the attention of the calamity. It instinctively reached down with its giant claws, locking them in firmly as if some kind of palm technique had descended from the sky. It was as if some invisible restriction had descended from the sky, and they could only watch helplessly as the giant claws quickly came down, unable to dodge at all.

Since we can't avoid it, let's confront it head-on.

The amplified holy sword in the boy's hand surged with power, instantly tearing apart the restrictions controlling everyone. It unleashed a dazzling sword beam that reached the heavens and cleaved the sky towards the terrifying giant claw.

After breaking free of the restriction, Bagst, now free, also surged with magic. He plucked the horn from his forehead, his body suddenly expanded, and the greatsword in his hand burst into flames, slashing out a sword shadow burning with black flames, as if it were the fangs of a predator biting through the enemy ranks. It merged with Li Wei's sword light and together they bombarded the main body of the calamity.

The combined power of the light cannons, enhanced by the savior, was greatly amplified, severing the giant claw of calamity at the root as easily as cutting through rotten wood!

Upon discovering the attack was effective, everyone's spirits soared. Li Wei's longsword pierced the air, the sound like a dragon's roar, while Bagst's sword intent burned fiercely, as sharp as a ravenous hound.

The two sword beams slashed through the body of the giant calamity, breaking through layers of armor like waves crashing against the shore, and with an indestructible force, almost cleaved it in two.

Moreover, the two who succeeded did not show victorious smiles on their faces; instead, they became even more solemn.

The astonishing wound did not seem to cause any harm to the calamity.

As if nothing had happened, the wound that had almost severed it in half healed even faster. In the blink of an eye, its body was completely healed.

“It’s always been like this. No matter how we fight it, it can always recover. It’s so demoralizing.” Bagst sighed and drew his sword to smash a rock in frustration.

"How did you deal with this kind of thing before?"

“This level of calamity is very rare. The last time it was wiped out was by His Excellency Yaling Hyakuzoku, the Grand Duke of Heat Dissipation, who led a large army. It is said that the casualties were extremely heavy.”

Although I don't know who this Grand Duke of Heat Dissipation is, judging from Bagst's appearance, he should be a skilled fighter, and his strength may even be above hers.

The problem is that he's not here right now, so we can only drag this out. Hopefully, His Majesty Morgan can really solve the problem.

"Um, I have another ability I can use..."

Behind her, Artoria said weakly, causing the two to turn around and look at her: "Then let it go, what else can it do but keep it? Will it have babies?"

"But I have no magic left, I can't release it at all." The savior spread his hands.

"..." What should we do then? Should we replenish mana together on the battlefield?

“Sir Guinevere, you have a way, right? Then use it!” Bagst said anxiously.

"...Then... shall I try?"

The boy turned to look at Artoria. The girl's petite and adorable appearance was quite charming, and after wearing the savior's clothes, she looked even more proud and awe-inspiring.

Speaking of which, you are Guinevere from the Fairy Kingdom, so it seems only natural that you would replenish King Arthur's mana.

To not help one's sister-in-law who is drowning is to be a wolf in sheep's clothing. It is proper for men and women not to touch each other; to help a drowning sister-in-law is an act of expediency. In this situation, it's alright to act hastily, right?

Thinking this, the boy approached Artoria little by little, the distance between them getting closer and closer until they could even smell each other's scent.

By this time, the other two weren't fools either, and they immediately figured out what Li Wei's plan was.

Without saying a word, Bagst covered his eyes with his hands, but the gaps between his fingers couldn't block anything at all.

"..."

Tintajer's body stiffened, her mind telling her that it was too hasty to do something that they had only known each other for a day. She should at least get to know each other better and then pick a good day or something.

We haven't even gone on a date yet... Oh well, I'll just consider myself a savior sacrificing myself for the world.

Yes, that's it. There's absolutely no reason why I was actually looking forward to it!

It was at this moment that the magic that had been accumulating in Norwich City finally erupted, and a phantom of the Spear of Limits burst forth, striking Calamity squarely.

At the same time, a large amount of high-level magic was released, and the calamity that had been as immovable as a mountain was instantly banished to an unknown space.

"His Majesty has made a move!" Bagst exclaimed, his voice tinged with surprise and doubt. "But something seems a little off; he seems a bit more anxious than before."

In fact, Li Wei felt the same way.

This spell wasn't perfect; it seemed to have been cast hastily in a rush.

It's like seeing something you like about to be taken away, and you can't resist deciding to fire a shot first.

"At least, this crisis is over, isn't it?" Li Wei comforted himself.

Chapter 20 Night Raid on Enemy Troops, Brutally Defeat Their Momentum

In any case, this calamity, which was enough to threaten the entire city, has finally been perfectly resolved.

When the three returned to Norwich, they were greeted with cheers as if they were heroes.

Li Wei looked around and saw that everyone, whether they were soldiers or civilians, straightened their backs and put on a strong appearance after he looked at them.

After today's battle, he gained considerable authority in Norwich City, and even the heavily armored Queen's Guards held him in high esteem.

Admiring the strong is, after all, a biological instinct.

The most excited of them all was Artoria. The Tintagel girl, visiting a big city for the first time from the countryside, blushed, clearly enjoying the atmosphere.

A celebratory banquet has been prepared at the Queen's palace. As a bustling commercial city, Norwich can easily purchase any supplies and host a sizable banquet in a very short time.

Li Wei was not interested in the clinking of glasses and the atmosphere of celebration. Seeing these guys celebrating that they had lived another day, but not making any preparations and instead placing all their hopes on Queen Morgan, Li Wei found the fairy both laughable and pathetic.

He was so tired that all he wanted to do was take a shower and get some rest.

Therefore, he made a brief appearance at the banquet, and left after hearing Queen Morgan announce that he would be free to act as he pleased.

Before leaving, he gave Castor some instructions, and seeing how much the girl was enjoying the sumptuous meal, he didn't want to spoil her mood.

The hot water in the palace was very comfortable and effectively relieved fatigue. The young man felt his body was recovering little by little, but his mental fatigue still needed time to subside.

After taking a bath, Li Wei was led by the maids to his bedroom. The palace was of the highest standard, with a soft bed, high-quality bedding, and comfortable pillows. After his bath, Li Wei lay down on the bed and quickly fell asleep.

"This time it's mainly mental exhaustion, so I might as well sleep a little longer."

With this in mind, Li Wei did not use the "Huangdi Neijing" to relieve his fatigue, but planned to take a normal nap and wake up around the afternoon.

However, what woke the boy from his dream was not the satisfaction of a full rest, nor the maids' calls, but a strange sensation coming from his body.

It was like some kind of canine licking Li Wei's cheek with its tongue, making a slightly adult joke.

"Is it Lucy?" That was Levi's first thought, but he immediately dismissed it.

This isn't my home in winter, and Lucy won't be licking my face while holding me in her arms and sniffing me.

Suddenly realizing something was wrong, the boy abruptly opened his eyes and saw a familiar figure that looked as if it wanted to devour him.

"Bagust? Why is she here?"

Turning his head to look at the face of the fairy knight Gawain, Levi couldn't help but ask this question.

……

Meanwhile, the banquet continued, and the girl from Tintajer was already very full, with food almost reaching her throat.

The past two days in Norwich were undoubtedly the happiest days of her life, as unforgettable as Memories of Spring. She met a handsome young man who believed in her, a senior was willing to give her a magic robe, and she even saved the city with legendary figures and received a warm welcome, as if she had truly become a savior.

"But where did Avi go to rest?"

After letting out a burp, Castor looked around for the boy, but couldn't find him.

"There are so many rooms in the palace, I can't find it at all... Could it be that I went back alone?"

"Hey you over there, are you the legendary child?"

Just as Artoria was feeling somewhat lost and unsure of what to do next, a strange, unpleasant voice came from behind her.

Turning around, she saw a slightly slender figure.

Red hair, red dress, red stockings, red high heels—her entire outfit was dominated by red, with only her pale, almost sickly skin and the white lining of her dress being the only exceptions. She wore a black hair accessory and her face was full of hostility.

Castor instinctively disliked her.

There's no particular reason, I just don't like it. It's like how people with black stockings and long, straight black hair dislike blonde hair and pigtails—it's a natural dislike.

"I am Artoria Caster, and you are...?"

“Fairy Knight Tristan, but I allow you to call me Bavanshi.” After sizing her up, the fairy knight named Bavanshi looked quite disappointed: “So you’re the one trying to steal my mother’s man? How could this country bumpkin possibly win against my mother?”

"What's wrong with a village girl? Did she eat your rice?" Castor roared in anger.

"Never mind, I didn't come here to argue with you." As if relieved, the red-haired fairy gestured to the maid beside her to hand over a dress and a set of cosmetics.

"Take good care of yourself, at least make yourself look presentable," she said. "Consider this your reward for today."

After saying these words, he left without looking back, as if he really had just come to take a look.

This dress is beautiful, and the cosmetics are high-end... but why is the hat green?

The girl looked herself up and down, put it on her head, and found that the size was just right.

……

Meanwhile, inside a room in the palace, the boy was talking to Bagst.

Li Wei could clearly sense that the fairy knight Gawain was not in a good state at the moment, like some kind of large canine, constantly craving the other party.

Despite this, the boy was never able to take control of the situation – too little force was useless, and too much force might hurt her, so he simply let her do as she pleased.

It must be said that, as a powerful and well-built member of the Tooth Clan, aside from the initial obvious feeling of scratching themselves due to pain, they were completely in the zone once they got to it.

Just as Li Wei was pondering how the two should communicate once Ba Gezi regained consciousness, a sudden change occurred.

The female knight, who had just been perfectly at ease with the young man, suddenly turned ferocious, like a vicious dog hunting its prey, and viciously bit down on Li Wei's neck.

This wasn't some romantic flirtation between a man and a woman; it was a real battle. Li Wei had no doubt that if he didn't dodge, his trachea would be torn open.

At this moment, there was no time to worry about anything else. Li Wei flipped over and sprang up, using his contortionist skills to lock his opponent's body in a lock, rendering him unable to move.

The two stared at each other, locked in a stalemate, neither willing to give in. After a while, the fierce female knight retreated.

Throughout all of this, the two never stopped interacting and communicating.

P.S.: Surprisingly, Bagst came out on top!

Chapter 21 Spring, the season of renewal once again...

No one knows what kind of terrifying scene just happened; what was originally a warm conversation almost turned into a murder scene.

Although Bagst was successfully subdued, she was not obedient and would occasionally make drastic moves, trying to overturn the boy riding on her and become his master.

Fortunately, Li Wei had some experience in taming canines—after all, Hagoromo Gitsune is also a canine.

And whether it was just his imagination or not, the boy felt that this terrifying experience of walking on the edge of life and death while engaging in a life-or-death exchange was more unforgettable than normal moments.

Although Bagzi was already controlled by her animalistic instincts as a predator, the boy, through his own perception, figured that she probably felt the same way.

Just like that spirited fruit fly in the high school textbook.

It's unclear whether his biology teacher, Nanatsu Totsugi, felt proud of his student's achievements or saddened that he was still unmarried at forty while his students were already applying what they had learned, leading him to contemplate suicide.

This battle, a matter of life and death as well as personal feelings, continues. If it weren't for the fact that both of them are still in the "Princess Connect" state, anyone who saw them would only think of the battle, not anything else.

Livy's posture resembled that of Hercules, the greatest hero in Greek mythology, as he completed the final step of the Twelve Trials, defeating Cerberus, the vicious dog of hell. Anyone could feel the intense masculine charm and fighting spirit emanating from him.
